I came across this a few times. My problem was with journals I set up by myself. I didn't give them the proper GUID partition type ID so the udev rules didn't know how to make sure the partition looked correct. What the udev rules were unable to do was chown the journal block device as ceph:ceph so that it could be opened by the Ceph user. You can test by chowning the journal block device and try to start the OSD again.
Alternatively if you want to see more information, you can start the daemon manually as opposed to starting it through systemd and see what its output looks like.
